Not listed THE PROPOSED THREE-DAY TWSC DECADAL SURVEY WORKSHOP (SCHEDULED FOR APRIL 28-30, 2015) AIMS TO GATHER THE BRIGHTEST AND MOST ACTIVE MINDS FROM THE RES ($13) 7/18/16 2 THE PROPOSED THREE-DAY TWSC DECADAL SURVEY WORKSHOP (SCHEDULED FOR APRIL 28-30, 2015) AIMS TO GATHER THE BRIGHTEST AND MOST ACTIVE MINDS FROM THE RESEARCH AND STAKEHOLDER COMMUNITIES. IT WILL DEBATE THE VARIOUS ISSUES IN ORDER TO FORMULATE A PATH FORWARD FOR NASA APPLIED SCIENCES AND CAPACITY BUILDING FOR THE UPCOMING NASA DECADAL SURVEY. THE WORKSHOP WILL CONNECT THE REGIONAL STAKEHOLDER COMMUNITY FROM THE FOUR SERVIR HUBS IN THE DEVELOPING WORLD WITH NASA APPLIED SCIENCE RESEARCH COMMUNITY. THIS CONNECTION WILL ALLOW A MEANINGFUL DISCUSSION THAT HAS LARGELY BEEN UNCOORDINATED TILL TODAY BUT NECESSARY TO GLOBALIZE AND ACCELERATE SOCIETAL APPLICATIONS OF SATELLITE DATA IN THE FUTURE FOR NASA DECADAL SURVEY. USING A REGIONAL AND THEMATIC APPROACH, THE WORKSHOP WILL SEEK ANSWERS TO THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS IN ORDER TO MAP A DECADAL-SCALE PATH FORWARD ON THE APPLICATION OF NASA SATELLITE DATA FROM CURRENT AND FUTURE MISSIONS: 1. WHAT TYPE OF VALUE-ADDED PRODUCTS/INFORMATION SHOULD WE PROVIDE FOR RESOURCE-CONSTRAINED PUBLIC AND NATIONAL STAKEHOLDER AGENCIES? 2. WHAT TYPE OF INDUSTRY OR PRIVATE-SECTOR PARTNERSHIP IS REQUIRED BETWEEN THE COMMUNITIES REPRESENTING SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH AND BENEFICIARIES? 3. HOW DO WE LEVERAGE THE COMBINED OBSERVATIONAL POWER OF NASA EARTH OBSERVING SATELLITE MISSIONS (CURRENT AND FUTURE) IN A SYNERGISTIC MANNER TO RAPIDLY MULTIPLY SOCIETAL APPLICATIONS? 4. HOW DO WE MAKE THE SCIENTIFIC INNOVATION FROM SATELLITE REMOTE SENSING DATA WORK FOR SOCIETY AS DURABLE AND ROBUST APPLICATIONS WITHOUT INCUBATION OR LONG-TERM EXTERNAL FUNDING? 5. WHAT IS THE OPTIMAL BUSINESS MODEL FOR SOCIETY TO BENEFIT SUSTAINABLY FROM SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH AND SATELLITE OBSERVATIONAL DATA TO SUPPORT OPERATIONAL (RECURRING) COSTS?
